Werewolf BEaston Basic* WW Part V - Vampires Win!

[MWPP]

I didn’t play the last version of this

Nor Nothing’s (vale) similar game involving signed /unsigned artists

Still, the other BE game which was in this format might give us a hint of the starting balance albeit that game was a slightly smaller one.

But back to this game- with any luck hopefully someone out there who landed a starting role has some intel

 

[MWPP]

I noticed BFew and MarcMaverick played last game and survived until the end as flogs in a town win whilst por_please_ya was the last evil killed as an Alpha. All 3 of you are playing. So could all of you please share insights into last game ie the strategies employed?

dogs105 JHF1870 Pie 4 Life - do you still maintain that you’re “villagers “ /drifting souls at the time of writing ?

 

[Bluelegs]

Just on this. Think of a vampire bite and astral recruitment as two different game mechanics.

So a Vampiric Drifting Soul can still be "found" by a faction. However you can't unvamp a vamp (you know, the whole eternal life thing), hence they stay with the Vamp wincon.

Reading this. Vampires are even more OP than usual.

Still am. Have realised there's recruitment now so regretting saying anything earlier. Hanging in there though.

 

[Bluelegs]

You know what would be a hoot? Handing me the amulet N1, that would create an entertaining D1..

I hope your cat is feeling better Gralin !

Neutral
Head Vampire - Night immune to kills; Seers as a Drifting Soul; Can recruit (up to 3 more Vampires) on odd Night Phases and kill on even Night Phases; Recruited Vampires retain their night actions, but their win condition changes to the Vampire’s win condition; Once the Head Vampire is killed, the Vampires can no longer recruit, but can still kill one player each Night Phase (undertaken by most recent recruit). Recruited vampires seer as their original role and "recruited".
WIN CONDITION - Eliminate the Mafia, Werewolves and equal or outnumber the Village.

Yep. For the reason you quoted but also that they’re NI/seer as DS ie the vanilla equivalent this game (which is not always the case but is sometimes). It makes capturing the Head Vampire early on in this game even more imperative. This is regardless of whether the 3 more Vamps are at any one time or in total for the entire game (I’ve seen either variant) but obviously it’s even worse if it’s the former.

If someone out there who missed would like to claim for the greater good- it’s worth it. They can’t recruit again tonight.

 

[MWPP]

No amulet exists though Pie 4 Life always seems to land NI roles when evil (unlike me) so maybe that was his way of trying to draw an action that would fail.

 

[The_Reaper]

There is a decent chance Pie4Life is night immune or got protected

It seems the Vampires are the only faction that can't perform Astral Recruits. Thank God for that, because two recruits a night would be insane.

I'm also a bit confused as to how the Village recruits? Is it the Flogs power or can any village player with a role attempt to recruit?

MWPP please because being so single minded toward one condition so early is a departure from her usual game. Feels like a trap.

Thanks BEaston

I'm not gona lie to you MWPP

The OP comes across as it beginning as a flog power but once all flogs are dead the power shifts to the next on the list

But this is why I’d love to hear from some people who actually played that last game of BE’s because I’m not sure

In the OP summary of the writeup , there were people who flipped Mafia or Werewolf Lost Wanderer (hi ZergMinion and Pie 4 Life ) but not a single person flipped town lost wanderer.

It’s as if you have skipped my previous posts which were on different topics. Anyway, I see what you’re trying to do. Good luck

Genuinely can't even remember the last game!!

Were you trying to induce role claims in all those ones too?

 

[Bluelegs]

No amulet exists though

I really should read the OP properly

Pie 4 Life always seems to land NI roles when evil (unlike me) so maybe that was his way of trying to draw an action that would fail.

You didn't play but it wouldn't have been surprising to see Pie get hit on night 1 after the last game.

I don’t know why anyone would. To my eye he choked away his win condition. Pretty poor play if you ask me.

 

[The_Reaper]

Is Astral recruit every turn? Because it looks like vampires and wolves didn’t kill last night. Can we assume they recruited instead?

Vamps recruit odd nights but that’s a standard recruit, not astral.

Wolves just plain suck imo

Finding the dead PM and your evil PM would be a start (I wasn’t part of it so I didn’t play) please

For those of us who didn’t play , I’ve been working off this

Hard to remember that when Village choked a Bradbury. Very rare combo.

P4L thanks BEaston

They did it with aplomb though. Pie also has no style.
